Something to say about development? Design Review Board openings

(Photo from SW Design Review Board’s 9/27/2012 meeting)
Tonight (6:30 pm, Senior Center of West Seattle), the Southwest Design Review Board convenes again, this time to review 9051 20th SW for what might be the final time. Ever wonder, who’s on the board and how they got there? The city is recruiting right now – for openings citywide including two on the Southwest DRB. See the official announcement to find out how to apply –

Thanks for publishing the link to that application. Looking over the requirements, I can see why every single member of every design review board has an automatic conflict of interest.

If the mayor only solicits “neighborhood” board members who owe their living to developers, it is somewhat less surprising that the entire board is going to be unanimously pro-unrestricted development in each and every case it “reviews.”
